Chatbots and other digital avatars are revolutionising customer relationships by serving customers night and day.\u00a0 They personalise interactions, making each service more adapted, more immediate.

Ethical considerations are legion \u2013 confidentiality, equity, transparency. The algorithms, as powerful as they are, can also get things wrong or worse, can be discriminatory, if they are not scrupulously monitored and regulated. The financial sector, by embracing AI wholeheartedly, must ensure that the technology does not become a Trojan horse, introducing risks and inequalities in the guise of progress.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, AI is a tool; it is up to us to decide how to use it.
